Trying to multiply money in India feels like a full-time job on top of my actual job 😂

I’m 27, working in tech, earning around ₹80L, and still somehow trying to figure out how people manage to feel “financially free” in India.

Every month I’m doing things like:

SIPs like a responsible adult

reading about how to multiply money without getting arrested

trying to understand why rent and inflation sprint while my investments walk

convincing myself that I don’t need another Zomato order

and reminding myself that happiness isn’t tied to income… hopefully

Honestly, sometimes I wonder how people manage: career + fitness + dating + family expectations + investments + sleep, all at the same time.

Because half the time, I’m busy calculating future returns like it’s an entrance exam. 😅

If anyone has cracked the “Make money + Stay sane + Not die single” formula… I’m taking notes.

(First post here, go easy on me 😄)
